< Isaia 60 >

1 Mitsangàna, mihazavà, fa tonga ny fahazavanao, ary ny voninahitr’ i Jehovah efa miposaka aminao.
Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.
2 Fa, indro, ny aizina manarona ny tany, ary ny aizim-pito manarona ny firenena; fa aminao kosa no iposahan’ i Jehovah, ary aminao no isehoan’ ny voninahiny.
For behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD will arise upon thee, and his glory will be seen upon thee.
3 Ary ny firenena manatona ny fahazavanao, ary ny mpanjaka mankeo amin’ ny famirapiratan’ ny fiposahanao.
And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.
4 Atopazy manodidina ny masonao ka jereo! Izy rehetra dia mivory ka mankaty aminao; Ny zanakao-lahy dia avy lavitra, ny zanakao-vavy dia sakelehina.
Lift up thy eyes around, and see: all they assemble themselves, they come to thee: thy sons shall come from far, and thy daughters shall be nursed at [thy] side.
5 Ary hahita izany ianao ka ho miramirana, dia hiemponempona sady hohalehibiazina ny fonao; fa ho entina ho anao ny haren’ ny ranomasina, ary hafindra ho anao ny fananan’ ny firenena.
Then thou shalt see, and flow together, and thy heart shall fear, and be enlarged; because the abundance of the sea shall be converted to thee, the forces of the Gentiles shall come to thee.
6 Ho feno ny rameva betsaka ao aminao, dia ny rameva tanora avy any Midiana sy Efaha, samy avy any Sheba izy rehetra; volamena sy ditin-kazo mani-pofona no ho entiny, ary ny fiderana an’ i Jehovah no teny mahafaly hambarany.
The multitude of camels shall cover thee, the dromedaries of Midian and Ephah; all they from Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold and incense; and they shall show forth the praises of the LORD.
7 Ny ondry aman’ osy rehetra any kedara dia hangonina ho ao aminao, ary ny ondrilahin’ i Nebaiota hanompo anao; hiakatra amin’ ny fankasitrahana ho eo ambonin’ ny alitarako ireo, ary hataoko be voninahitra ny tranon’ ny voninahitro.
All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered to thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister to thee: they shall come up with acceptance on my altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory.
8 Iza moa ireto manidina tahaka ny rahona ary tahaka ny voromailala ho amin’ ny varavarankeliny?
Who [are] these [that] fly as a cloud, and as doves to their windows?
9 Fa Izaho no andrasan’ ny nosy, ary ny sambon’ i Tarsisy ho loha-lalana, Hitondra ny zanakao avy lavitra mbamin’ ny volafotsiny sy ny volamenany, ho an’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitrao sy ho an’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely, Satria efa nanome voninahitra anao Izy.
Surely the isles shall wait for me, and the ships of Tarshish first, to bring thy sons from far, their silver and their gold with them, to the name of the LORD thy God, and to the Holy One of Israel, because he hath glorified thee.
10 Ary ny hafa firenena no hanangana ny mandanao, ary ny mpanjakany hanompo anao; fa tamin’ ny fahatezerako no namelezako anao. Ary amin’ ny fitiavako kosa no amindrako fo aminao,
And the sons of strangers shall build up thy walls, and their kings shall minister to thee: for in my wrath I smote thee, but in my favor have I had mercy on thee.
11 Ary hidanadana mandrakariva ny vavahadinao, tsy hirindrina izy na andro na alina, hampidirana ny haren’ ny firenena sy ny mpanjakany izay efa voababo ho ao aminao.
Therefore thy gates shall be open continually; they shall not be shut day nor night; that [men] may bring to thee the forces of the Gentiles, and [that] their kings [may be] brought.
12 Fa ho levona izay firenena sy fanjakana tsy hanompo anao; eny, ireny firenena ireny hofongorana tokoa.
For the nation and kingdom that will not serve thee shall perish; yes, [those] nations shall be utterly wasted.
13 Ny voninahitr’ i Libanona ho tonga aminao, ny hazo kypreso sy ny pina ary ny bokso koa handravahana ny fitoerako masìna, ary hasiako voninahitra ny fitoeran-tongotro.
The glory of Lebanon shall come to thee, the fir-tree, the pine-tree, and the box together, to beautify the place of my sanctuary; and I will make the place of my feet glorious.
14 Ny zanak’ izay nampahory anao dia handeha hiondrika eo anatrehanao, ary hiankohoka amin’ ny faladianao izay rehetra nanamavo anao; ary izy hanao anao hoe Tanànan’ i Jehovah, Zionan’ ny Iray Masin’ ny Isiraely.
The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending to thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.
15 Ho solon’ ny nahafoizana anao sy ny nankahalana anao ary ny tsy nandehanan’ olona namaky anao, dia hasandratro ho rehareha mandrakizay ianao, eny, ho fifaliana hatramin’ ny taranaka fara mandimby.
Whereas thou hast been forsaken and hated, so that no man went through [thee], I will make thee an eternal excellence, a joy of many generations.
16 Ary hinono amin’ ny jentilisa ianao sady hinono amin’ ny mpanjaka; ka dia ho fantatrao fa Izaho Jehovah no Mpamonjy anao, ary Ilay Maherin’ i Jakoba no Mpanavotra anao.
Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the LORD [am] thy Savior and thy Redeemer, the mighty one of Jacob.
17 Hahatonga volamena Aho ho solom-barahina, ary hahatonga volafotsy ho solom-by, ary varahina ho solon-kazo, ary vy ho solom-bato; ny fiadanana no hataoko fanapahana anao, ary ny fahamarinana no ho mpampiasa anao.
For brass I will bring gold, and for iron I will bring silver, and for wood brass, and for stones iron: I will also make thy officers peace, and thy exactors righteousness.
18 Ny fampahoriana tsy ho re eo amin’ ny taninao intsony, na ny fandravana sy ny fandringanana ao anatin’ ny fari-taninao; ny mandanao dia hataonao hoe Famonjena, ary ny vavahadinao hataonao hoe Fiderana.
Violence shall no more be heard in thy land, wasting nor destruction within thy borders; but thou shalt call thy walls Salvation, and thy gates Praise.
19 Tsy ny masoandro intsony no ho fanazavana anao nony andro; ary tsy ny fangarangaran’ ny volana no hanazava anao; fa Jehovah no ho fanazavana anao mandrakizay, ary Andriamanitrao no ho voninahitrao.
The sun shall be no more thy light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light to thee: but the LORD will be to thee an everlasting light, and thy God thy glory.
20 Tsy hilentika intsony ny masoandronao, ary ny volanao tsy hisoka; fa Jehovah no ho fanazavana anao mandrakizay, ary ho tapitra ny andro fahalahelovanao.
Thy sun shall no more go down; neither shall thy moon withdraw itself: for the LORD will be thy everlasting light, and the days of thy mourning shall be ended.
21 Ary ny olonao rehetra ho marina avokoa; hanana ny tany ho mandrakizay izy, eny, ho voly maitso eo amin’ ny sahako. Asan’ ny tanako ho fampisehoam-boninahitra.
Thy people also [shall be] all righteous: they shall inherit the land for ever, the branch of my planting, the work of my hands, that I may be glorified.
22 Ny kely ho tonga arivo, ary ny malemy ho tonga firenena mahery; Izaho Jehovah no hanafaingana izany amin’ ny fotoany.
A little one shall become a thousand, and a small one a strong nation: I the LORD will hasten it in its time.
